@@exodia396sforbiddenreviews7 that is quite literally such a huge turnoff that i didn't get him, which makes me kinda sad because he looks awesome, WHY did they do that? Like the chain/hose and makes sense, but blade, barrel hand and spikes?! Like those are the things that HAVE to be hard to actually be of any use whatsoever😂
@@k-hut9344 Bud, I really understand what you mean but the reason they made the spikes blade and barrel are soft plastic is to prevent them from breaking. Might be wrong IDK
Voyager size yet Leader pricepoint? This figure is a shining example of this, i will gladly pay the leader pricepoint to get around some of the shortcuts and budget restrictions of a voyager. They should have put Sentinel Prime as a leader. Great review as always P!
@@Commander_Shepard. From what I see, hasbro uses way less plastic than they did back in the day (say 2003-12) than they do now and charge even MORE than they use to. I remember when deluxe class figures were only $10 and voyagers were $20 and they were quite a bit bigger than what we get now and im seeing deluxe class figures go for $15 and they are tiny even compared to movie 1 deluxe Bumblebee that sold for 10$. The only thing complex about this figure is the sculpt work but the transformation engineering is no more complex than many of their past figures ROTF leader class prime is a glaring example of this.
@@amartinez97 So does bread. The bakeries didn't change the ingrediants, shape or size but the bread costs alot more than it used to back in good ol 2003-2012. 🤷♂️
@@22B112 actually he's not, SS Shockwave is the same height as ROTF/DOTM Megatron, and either of them tower over any voyager from Prime. SS Shockwave IS slightly bigger than BH Shockwave
Never did care for Shockwaves vehicle mode but I understand why it was implemented in the first place. That said, I’ve come to appreciate his alternative mode a bit more as I see it as more of an extension of his arsenal. It’s pretty much taking his power and putting it on wheels. God damn though. He is one thick mother and a must buy. edit - One month later here. Shockwave just arrived and uh, yea. He's kind of really amazing and tabs in incredibly well. His vehicle mode? Dope as fuck. 9/10 SS figure. It's the rubber pieces. The blade stays in but the connection kind of sucks.
I’m guessing when you’re the one of the only channels on TH-cam reviewing collectors like this piece, then no more likely send you one of the first on the production line to review like most video game reviewers nowadays.
This guy is by far my favorite of the leaders of the line because Shockwave's the guy I have been pleading to Hasbro to remake. Now I'm happy this finally exist! He's my next christmas present.
Mr Logical is back, and better then ever. The painting reminds me of his TF: Prime color scheme, which is cool. Love the resculpting and details in this Shockwave remold, looking exactly like his DOTM movie and video game appearance. Thought the feet looks weird, because it looks like he has no heels, just the heel spurs, but I'm sure there's some way around it. Wheelie and Brain looks cool, but the paratrooper, not feeling it. Again, a great improvement over the original DOTM Shockwave toyline. His transformation into tank mode, wish it happen into the movie, but it's cool we can do it ourselves and great admire its detailing. Similar to ROTF Meagtron, which is cool. Out of the two, Shockwave wears it best. -Looking forward to adding the Decepticon assassin to my TF collection, and hope that the Studio Series toyline release his KSI drone known as Two Heads and/or re-release Nitro Zeus with the Shockwave head, to match his TLK appearance.
I'm definitely getting both shock wave and soundwave. Holy crap they look amazing next to star scream and barricade. Dark of the Moon is oine of my favorite movies so I definitely getting all the decepticons for that movie
This is the treatment he should've gotten in toy form in the first place. I remember being extremely disappointed that they only made a voyager of him for DotM.
I found him tonight, w more earthrise and all the deluxe and the other leader class scavenger. I bought soundwave. I'm hesitant to buy the leader class studio series without a sale/coupon bc they always go clearance/cheaper or target has a sale... But damn, it was hard leaving this shockwave on the shelf. Him and blackout are some of the best transformers made.
The details... the paint scheme... the sculpt.. I cannot believe this is an ACTUAL ACTION FIGURE!! It looks like something that would sell more than $50, like one of those statues.
The one thing that really annoys me is the excessive unnecessary use of rubbery plastic and the fact that there are certain reused elements of the rotf voyager megatron. I mean really Hasbro. All the aside I am mostly happy with the figure.
Hello PrimeVSPrime I got my Shockwave almost a week ago, oh wow it is so awesome, and it dont have any flaw with the feet except the blade. But the best thing with Shockwave that it still have the 'Protoform' ich body type, unlike all other Studio Series Line
Me realizing 2020 is near, thus SS Shockwave is closer to being released.. Also me once I have Shockwave within my grasp: I'm gonna enjoy it, very very much
I just got this figure, and I’m not going to unplug the hose but I found it better to put the hose over the front of his thigh and the hinge on his back faces inward, only goes in that way during transformation. It makes it where the hose doesn’t hinder the rolling
I have to wonder why DNA design still mater not released DK-18 Upgrade Kit for this guy. But even still, this is an AWESOME FIGURE! I also have this figure, and i LOVE it! Although, my cop's ankles AND hips are too loose, and unfortunately, i cannot fix that. But I can probably fix his Cannon's loose bicep swivel.
I still have the Voyager shockwave, but he's now missing his blade, and hose... Which I substituted with Lego parts... My mom got him for me when we were at target in 2011, and the movie had not yet released in theaters. I was gonna bring him with me to watch the movie, but I opted for the burger king shockwave instead...
Glad I watched this, been looking to get this one but afraid of how it looked aside from the pictures. In honesty my favorite version of shockwave, a part from g1 is the one from transformers prime
They should do a studio series leader class Ultra Magnus if they could pull that off somehow but great review and good job including detail! I'm actually a collector of these figures too so I'm able to know when a new one comes out just by looking at your channel, you've inspired me and keep it up! I'll do my best to give you all the support you need! 😀
But the only thing I'm not fond of with this figure is the Sword on his arm with the weird plastic but at the same time your better safe than sorry, what do you think Prime?
I got this figure and adore it I treat it with more care then my masterpiece mp 10 I am super happy to get it and you are the reason why I got it I saw it on my TH-cam and I saw it and now I have one of my own because of you. So thank you. (But I took the hose of mine for better movement.
Hey, PVP. Great review. I was wanting to ask if you had the box for the recent figures that you've reviewed? You used to show the boxes for the toys that you showed on the channel. Do you not have the boxes or did you just change up your review style?
I understand they do the bendy rubber for safety and so it doesnt break, but when are hasbro and takara going to realize that we who really want this figures and stuff, dont want bendy parts like that, because if they get bent for too long or in the wrong position (like the spikes on studio series dotm megatron truck mode) then it ruins the figure a bit
Not a masterpiece but a Studio Series Masterpiece
So true
Lets see what black mamba does
I told my friend I was getting a Masterpiece Movie Shockwave, he was telling me that it doesn't exist and that I was wrong
I wouldn’t be surprised if hasbro upscale this and slap the masterpiece logo into it
Origami Master Yoda I forgot about that lol
12:20
“This version of shockwave is your most logical choice to go for...”
I see what you did there
The Creator dangit
ion get it
It was the most logical puns to do
*arcee what you did there.
Jack Rudolf DA FWACK.
I think the squishy plastic is used for his hands and sword because they don’t want people poking their eyes out with them. I hate it when “regulations” prevent having things like pointy plastic.
Quantum Magnus hopefully upgrade kits can fix that
Also has to do with drop tests and such.
Cause there will* be dumb kids who will poke there friends eyes with them
I think it’s also because so they don’t break off
Ooooh becauss kids dont have forks at home.
Shockwave:''your Review is Logical''
He never said that in DotM, which was quite... Illogical
@@BlackLivesMatter23in the movies he's asassin, not scientist
*says shockwave is his favorite deception*
Me: *destroys sub button*
By the way I hate how his hands and blade are made of soft plastic. I almost was ready to get him

I think we all can agree that this is the Shockwave we should’ve gotten back in 2011 when Dotm came out...am I right
I mean sure but they weren't as great as they are now at making these transformers
The only advantage this one has is looking better in robot mode. The transformation is a joke and the tank mode is a mess
Hell naw..these versions are trash...shameful our world is so sensitive we can't even make ray guns anymore
@@patrickburns4821geewunner
Damn! That level of detail! I'm blown away at how much effort Hasbro has put into these toys! Absolutely incredible!
Soundwave and Shockwave look amazing in this line
This is.... logical.
A logical purchase
Hell yeah!
This is a MUST HAVE! The BEST Movie Shocwave there is! Shockwave is one of my favorite transformers! Thanks for this GREAT REVEIW!

@@warmachine6988Ok
This is one of the best bayverse designs in my opinion because you can actually tell who it's supposed to be
He looks like he leaped right off the screen
The amount of accuracy is astounding
It’s always the cybertronian ones with the least amount of backpack aka no back pack
My proof
Revenge of the fallen Megatron
And this figure
Bumblebee movie Prime has like no back pack and Grimlock
The Creator well talk to MPM megatron
Because they have complex cars
One of my most hyped reviews from you and as usual you definitely succeeded at making an amazing in depth review
What a masterpiece... I can't wait to have it for my stop-motions !
I hope it won't be too expansive if it is released in France...
Did you get your hands on it?
I want it
Nobody:
Shockwave after Optimus Prime literally punched out his insides: *YWAHHHHGEEEEEE*
You forgot to mention that there's a little grip on his hand where he can hold a different weapon of sorts
Just got my Shockwave from Amazon. Well worth the $55. Incredible detail and fun addition to the collection.
How?! How did you get this figures early?!
MrGojira95 he does it all the time

Was finally able to order one of these can't wait for it to come in, amazing looking figure.
Shockwave is also my favorite decepticon too!👍👍👍
Definitely looking forward to buying this guy!
Man i have been waiting for this this to be released i cant wait to get my hands on it
I'm definitely getting both shock wave and soundwave. Holy crap they look amazing next to star scream and barricade. Dark of the Moon is oine of my favorite movies so I definitely getting all the decepticons for that movie
This video was the reason I fell in love with transformers
Thank primus they bothered to give him color, it really bothered me that all the decepticons in dark of the moon were all just metallic silver
He always had the purple colour, it was just hard to see
Second
Edit: he looks like The masterpice figure ! My wallet is already crying
No i
Second!
Love to see your full collection video on you're studio series figures
Cannot wait for the KO upscale for this figure! Lol
Master Skywalker, why do you hate sand?
I have the highground now
You finally have him. I suppose your in love with the figure
I have this figure now, I love it!!!!
This is the treatment he should've gotten in toy form in the first place. I remember being extremely disappointed that they only made a voyager of him for DotM.
I can't wait to get this guy. I sold the Voyager Class versions years ago with no regrets.

Shockwave , Starscream and Megatron are my favorite deceptions
I have no words on how beautiful this is...its only logical that I buy this ASAP
Nice seeing your old videos!
This makes the need for any third party Shockwave redundant, just like SS Grimlock, I’m definitely going to get this.
the part on the legs, you can heat them with a heat gun and make them touch the floor to give more balance.
All of this and no Driller? WE BEEN ROBBED!!!!
Shockwave's Robot Mode- God tier recreation
Shockwave's Alt Mode- Pile of parts with gun on top
The details... the paint scheme... the sculpt.. I cannot believe this is an ACTUAL ACTION FIGURE!! It looks like something that would sell more than $50, like one of those statues.
In canada it’s well over $50 :(
Dungus Wungus ouch... that’s rough. I’ve heard Nintendo games are more than 60 up there as well...

Oh yay, another shockwave figure in 2019 that is voyager sized being sold as a leader class
Same here, my favorite deception is shockwave

Nice figure I literally got this gor christmas plus in getting more nice review mate
Shockwave is also my favourite transformers in the films
Studio series 54 Megatron review coming up soon? Lol
I wish micheal bay got his first plan for Dotm because he wanted shockwave to be the main antagonist, but the producers didn't
Have you noticed that the wheels on the back of his legs can split like ROTF Megatron's?
14:03 Recently got mine. I can spot some stress marks there or maybe it's just the lighting.
what websites do you use to get the studio series toys for a good price
(because we are fammillyy ararr) refrence to dark of the moon brains
yeah I'm curious on where he got it
BigBadToyStore and AgesThreeAndUp is good
Awesome figure awesome review
If I may ask do you prefer the Optimus design from the movie 1 movie 3 movie 4 or the bumblebee movie
Shock wave is the best Decepticon. Hopefully we see more of him in the bumblebee sequel
I still have the Voyager shockwave, but he's now missing his blade, and hose... Which I substituted with Lego parts...

SS Shockwave :Hi
PrimevsPrime :(Scream like a fan girl )
I just wish they included the car he used as a shield. If the paratrooper is possible, I think this would be too.
I have the studio series shockwave and I never knew that the parachute guy could peg on shockwave
10:48 Shockwave towers over Soundwave. LOL
0.0 I like the paint
Again my money has left my bank
Glad I watched this, been looking to get this one but afraid of how it looked aside from the pictures.
In honesty my favorite version of shockwave, a part from g1 is the one from transformers prime
I dare someone to replace each time he doesn’t pause after speaking with a tf2 nope
Can’t wait. I for him coming in 20 days

I really do wish that all the studio series figures were painted as well as shockwave
Question, isn't the torso also a re use form the tf1 Megatron? I actually own that figure and it looks and works exactly like Megatrons torso
20:03, poor wheelie
The movie wasn't completly gray?
I thought wheelie and brains were both in leadfoot not the other 2?🤔

Damn! Looks incredible!
You see this is what i like about studio series they make the designs like tithe actual movie design
i was surprised to see that he transformed
It is logical why they made him
Personally my favorite is g1 soundwave, but my favorite version is shattered glass auto bot sound wave
Is that the dark of the moon deluxe topspin
And i believe this will be the top 10 of the rank of all studio series figure, or maybe top 3(jetfire position was in danger)
I understand they do the bendy rubber for safety and so it doesnt break, but when are hasbro and takara going to realize that we who really want this figures and stuff, dont want bendy parts like that, because if they get bent for too long or in the wrong position (like the spikes on studio series dotm megatron truck mode) then it ruins the figure a bit
is this a recolour/retool of rotf Megatron? the body designs look very similar
What's your next review? And thanks for quality content!
